What’s a good African Safari Shirt to protect against biting tsetse flys and nats?
While YancyW is correct about Westley Richards Shirts you will find them one of the best for Tsete flies given their thickness. I have three long sleeve that I always take if I know Tsetse flies will be present. Incredible quality. Having said the above…Tsetse flies can in the end bite through anything. At least these shirts greatly cut down their bites but anticipate you will still get a few.Bush shirt from Calebs is my favorite, but I don't believe they make them anymore. The Expedition shirt from Westley Richards are the nicest, I love mine, but they are heavy, hot and expensive.
They now sell them at Walmart of all places.Tag cotton shirts have worked well for me.
Was that in fly country?Of course, answers here are like shu-wee-holes, we all have one. BUT, ya don't need the ultra fancy, high dollar statement attire. Just take our fella hunter, checked bag was lost and he hunted in what he wore on the trip over, fortunately he had a few extra clothes in his carry-on and I was able to front him a few items. Laugh and learn, gym clothes will work.View attachment 609382
